  • Diatonic-Collection Disruption in the Melodic Material of Alban Berg‟S Op
    Michael Schnitzius Diatonic-Collection Disruption in the Melodic Material of Alban Berg‟s Op. 5, no. 2 The pre-serial Expressionist music of the early twentieth century composed by Arnold Schoenberg and his pupils, most notably Alban Berg and Anton Webern, has famously provoked many music-analytical dilemmas that have, themselves, spawned a wide array of new analytical approaches over the last hundred years. Schoenberg‟s own published contributions to the analytical understanding of this cryptic musical style are often vague, at best, and tend to describe musical effects without clearly explaining the means used to create them. His concept of “the emancipation of the dissonance” has become a well known musical idea, and, as Schoenberg describes the pre-serial music of his school, “a style based on [the premise of „the emancipation of the dissonance‟] treats dissonances like consonances and renounces a tonal center.”1 The free treatment of dissonance and the renunciation of a tonal center are musical effects that are simple to observe in the pre-serial music of Schoenberg, Berg, and Webern, and yet the specific means employed in this repertoire for avoiding the establishment of a perceived tonal center are difficult to describe. Both Allen Forte‟s “Pitch-Class Set Theory” and the more recent approach of Joseph Straus‟s “Atonal Voice Leading” provide excellently specific means of describing the relationships of segmented musical ideas with one another. However, the question remains: why are these segmented ideas the types of musical ideas that the composer wanted to use, and what role do they play in renouncing a tonal center? Furthermore, how does the renunciation of a tonal center contribute to the positive construction of the musical language, if at all? 1 Arnold Schoenberg, “Composition with Twelve Tones” (delivered as a lecture at the University of California at Las Angeles, March 26, 1941), in Style and Idea, ed.

  • Hexatonic Cycles
    CHAPTER Two H e x a t o n i c C y c l e s Chapter 1 proposed that triads could be related by voice leading, independently of roots, diatonic collections, and other central premises of classical theory. Th is chapter pursues that proposal, considering two triads to be closely related if they share two common tones and their remaining tones are separated by semitone. Motion between them thus involves a single unit of work. Positioning each triad beside its closest relations produces a preliminary map of the triadic universe. Th e map serves some analytical purposes, which are explored in this chapter. Because it is not fully connected, it will be supplemented with other relations developed in chapters 4 and 5. Th e simplicity of the model is a pedagogical advantage, as it presents a circum- scribed environment in which to develop some central concepts, terms, and modes of representation that are used throughout the book. Th e model highlights the central role of what is traditionally called the chromatic major-third relation, although that relation is theorized here without reference to harmonic roots. It draws attention to the contrary-motion property that is inherent in and exclusive to triadic pairs in that relation. Th at property, I argue, underlies the association of chromatic major-third relations with supernatural phenomena and altered states of consciousness in the early nineteenth century. Finally, the model is suffi cient to provide preliminary support for the central theoretical claim of this study: that the capacity for minimal voice leading between chords of a single type is a special property of consonant triads, resulting from their status as minimal perturbations of perfectly even augmented triads.

Measures 18–23, in particular, manifest several elements that return repeatedly in the course of the work, and consequently a space defined by the objects and transformations characteristic of this passage can provide a framework for interpreting transformational relations throughout the piece. This paper provides such a space, in an interactive format that allows the reader to explore grouping structure within the passage. The space is then expanded to accommodate later passages involving similar motivic material. Received November 2008 Introduction [1.1] Clermont Pépin (1926–2006), a prolific and influential twentieth-century Canadian composer, incorporates elements from serialism, jazz, and neo-classicism, but like many Québécois composers of his generation also employs the repetition and development of smaller atonal intervallic motives. By interpreting these intervallic motives transformationally (that is, understanding them as a series of transformations rather than as a grouping of pitch classes), motivic repetition can be depicted as a series of moves through a space. The structure of the space, its objects and transformations, and the path through the space all express characteristic elements of the associated musical passage.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in "sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
